SPIRAL Technology

Complete automation technology that outperforms human programmers

SpiralGen is the primary supporter of the open source SPIRAL software generation and optimization technology. The SPIRAL system automatically generates platform-tuned code to create performance-critical software for signal processing and a growing list of other mathematical functions.

A C program, for example, can be generated for your FFT, DCT, discrete wavelet transform, or FIR filter which will run significantly faster on your computer than almost any other existing C program.

Developed at Carnegie Mellon

SPIRAL was developed under the lead of Carnegie Mellon University in an effort to address a key problem in software and hardware development: how to achieve close to optimal performance with reasonable coding effort?
